Company through Fund A otherwise required to be filed under paragraph (c) of
Rule 497 does not differ from the form of Prospectus and SAI contained in the
Form N-4 registration statement for Fund A, which was filed electronically with
the Securities and Exchange Commission via EDGARLINK on April 30, 1999 and
became effective on May 1, 1999.
Sincerely,
JOHN W. REX
